Lecund visibly drove for a moment and even ran a red light at the next intersection. I had to remind him several times before he could barely the road again

His Ailan's apple bobbed, but he couldn't get a single word out.

Telosed my eyes, feeling like I was being ridiculous. I already knew what answer I'd get, yet I asked anyway. What a waste.

"Eva" Leonand's voice was even raspler, as it he was trying to work through some kind of emotion.

Knowing what he was about to say, I quickly cut him ott, "You don't need to say it. I understand, really."

I did understand. Haring a child had always been Leonard's dream. It wasn't about legacy like other men; he wanted someone who shared his bloodline, a real family connection. "Evd, I'm sorry." He only said these three words, but I knew exactly what he meant.

Maybe beinly didn't love Amelia, but back then, he saw her as me, and that was how they ended up in bed together. Achild came out of it. The story sounded simple, but every time I thought about it, I felt sick, Everyone said it wasn't Leonard's fault, but then whose fault was it? I didn't want to think about it because no matter whose fault it was, I was the one paying the price.

"Leonard, pull over." My tone was calm.

Leonard hesitated for a second before pulling the car to the side of the road. He tried to grab my hand, but I pulled away.

Amelia was right. She wouldn't let me raise her child, and I wouldn't do it either. So, what was the point?

I composed myself and smiled at Leonard. "Let's end it here. Get the divorce papers ready, and I'll sign them. Today's Friday, so let's meet at the county clerk's office on Monday. Don't forget the documents." Topened the door and stepped out of the car. This time, he didn't stop me,

It used to be that whenever divorce came up after we got married, he'd get angry. But not this time. We were both tired. Instead torturing each other, we might as well let go.

It was still early when I got back to the office. Glenn and two other guys were still organizing files. I went straight to them and told them to start packing. *Eva, are we really leaving? Leonard didn't say anything?" Glenn frowned, clearly wanting to say more. 1 shook my head. "We're not paying for this office, and I can't afford to rent it. Let's go."

Zack found us a new studio that was much farther from downtown, but the environment was better, and the rent was cheaper. If 1 was going to make something of my own, I couldn't keep relying on the Harmon family,

The next morning, everyone showed up, and we had everything packed. Emina and the design team came to help us move, and there was a sense of reluctance in the air.

*Eva, are you really leaving?" lean clutched one of my boxes. She was on the verge of tears.

"Yeah, I was never really part of Harmon Group, and now that the project's dead, I can't just stick around." I ruffled her hair, feeling a bit uneasy myself.

By the time Leonard arrived, everything had been loaded onto the trucks. In reality, there wasn't much to move from a design firm. Zack's and Jill's cars were enough for the job.

"Eva, are you in such a hurry? You could wait until next month. No one's rushing you out." Leonard looked guilty and reached for the bags I was holding

I took a step back and smiled at him. "We were going to Inove sooner or later anyway. Don't forget about Monday.
